I didn’t expect to like this show so I was happily surprised when it started out by portraying a girl who experienced a bad childhood and had to escape to her own Emerald City to cope and became a smart, tough, rebellious young woman who learned to get by no matter what. Think Bones (from Bones) meets Leather Tuscadero (see below), with childhood memories of the death of her mother on par with the tragedy experienced by Bruce Wayne. Turns out the building she dreamed of as her Emerald City is actually a place where a drug company has a secret floor of bodies hanging from the ceiling being kept alive by artificial means. As for the meaning of the title, she DOES feel pain but since her body slowly heals itself she has to learn to KILL the pain. Definitely worth a watch!

[…] The mythology of the Stargate series was the first show this week and I found it very entertaining because I enjoy buying into the myth that everything in the Stargate universe comes from the past as they connect it to Ancient Greece and the Gods. When people ask me if I believe in ghosts or whatever unseen eerie things are dreamed up on television and in the movies, I usually tell them that until it’s proven impossible I always believe in the possibility. Stargate SG-1 followed with the continuation of the SG-1 team on the run from the dragon that supposedly guarded the “Sangraal” which could help rid them of the evil Ori. Stargate: Atlantis came next as our beloved Richard Dean Anderson helped the Atlantis SG folks save the Earth from the Replicators. Go here for my review of Painkiller Jane. […]
